Issa Rae Tells Desus and Mero About Her Drunk Rap Skills

The HBO star visited the VICELAND show to discuss her upcoming season of 'Insecure.'

Issa Rae is a woman of many talents, and, as we recently learned, one of them is throwing down beats while drunk. During Tuesday's episode of Desus & Mero, Rae—who writes, directs, and stars in one of HBO's most buzzworthy shows, Insecure—told the VICELAND hosts about her rap skills, which mainly come out when she's had a few drinks. She even went on to talk about who she'd love to collaborate with to make her drunken bars even more fire.

In the interview, Rae also talked about the awkwardness of press tours, gentrification in Los Angeles, and Insecure's second season, which debuts this Sunday.
